OPERA SEASON DEMANDS NEW EVENING GOWNS AND WRAPS

By Alli'e Unt-r ler STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE i'AKIS, Dec. 2. In the -coquet-Mr tie theater of the Champs EXysct-s Madame Maria Efremova is the center of a group; of charmingRussian refugees, artists wl-o sketch little scenes of their Uvea souvenirs of gay times before the Revolution under the title of "The Moscow Fair." Madame Efrjmova became Known to Parisian 'heater lovers last year In the performance of "La Chauve Sourls." under the direction of Balleff. The little tableaux which she has arranged do not surpasssome may even say thai they do not equal those of her former leader, but the Is not trying- to compete with him. She has searchel for "atmosphere" and she ha succeeded in finding- St with the aid of Monsieur Soudeklne arid his fascinatingbita of scenery, full of color and gralety. The spectacle resembles that of a Parisian cabaret raised to a high level. For music there is only a piano and to this the artists str.ff and dance. The scenes are sometimes like miniatures, sentimental engravings or chromos, and sometimes like little ribbons of film. The whole story is not given, they are mere suggestions which make one think of the '"news in three lines" which Mephistopheies Feneon Invented to Imitate Journalism. It remains for the onlookers to develop the romar.esque airs, the popular scenes of washerwomen and coachmen dancing- in Sunday g-arb, sailors Bingrlng- on the banks of the Volga and the interlorof a obaret where a fine, black hussard makes his last adieu to the tzigane.

For the first trme since the Arenas disappeared from the rue Fergolese with the Exposition of 1900 Paris Is to see some bull-figrhts. but they will not be of the very bloody variety. They are a kind of humorlstlQ play very much In favor on the other side of th Pyrenees under the name of "charlottades." Three celebrated matadors Chariot, El Chispa and Su Eostones have arrived In Paris to Introduce the sport, brlng-lns with them, a number of nervous little bulls with great horns.

Twelve inches from tlpt to tip Is the measurement of the famous black moustache of ?o. 2009, policeman at the Porte St. Denis. It Is ?aid to be the longest and silkiest rf any In the republic, but No. 003, ':s whispered, is prouder of his i'ioi police record than the black : airs which have won him fame.

This should bo suns to tho accompaniment of Scotch bag pipes, with a chorus of hotel men and real estate dealers dancins the. Highland Fling in the. background. After th letharpy of a languid Summer Palm Beach now smiles invitingly. Consider these Falm Beach touritss; they toil not, but do diligently spin the toddle top. and Solomon in ail his glory possessed not the haberdashery of on of these. The Mecca of the moneyed; the groal of the gouty; th2 haven of the haggard that's Palm Beach. Of course, the actual "season" will not begin until Just before Christmas with the opening of the big hotels on the ocean front. SEAsO.V STARTING SOW, Already a drive over the island after dank will show lights shining from handsome homes along Royal Palm Way, Brazilian Avenue. Worth Avenue and Chilean Avenue. There are a few homes orn on the Ocean Boulevard, while retinues of servants are arriving every day to make ready the Talm Beach homes for their owners. Real estate men say that fully three-fourths of thr houses have been leased and that practically ..very northerner own

A great many of those who come to visit remain to buy homes, and either keep them as winter residences or elect to stay in Florida the year roundThus has the town assumed its present proportions. The ordinary five-room furnished house rents at from $650 to $800 a season of six mouths and extends from anywhere in November to anywhere in May.
